"Trust Me in the midst of a messy day. Your inner calm--your Peace in My Presence--need not be shaken by what is going on around you. Though you live in this temporal world, you innermost being is rooted and grounded in eternity. When you start to feel stressed, detach yourself from the disturbances around you. Instead of desperately striving to maintain order and control in you little world, relax and remember that circumstances cannot touch My Peace.
Seek My Face, and I will share My mind with you, opening your eyes to see things from My perspective. Do not let your heart be troubled, and do not be afraid. The Peace I give is sufficient for you."
--Today, from Jesus Calling, by Sarah Young
Lord, make Yourself strong in my weakness, my peace does not feel peaceful--give me Your peace Lord. Part of my heart is missing, overwhelm it with Your love. I feel empty, I feel weak, I feel lost, and yet I feel this weird strength, this weird hope--an erie strength beyond my tears and this weakened body. Lord, why have You given me this so quickly, while my eyes still sting and tears still fall, while my heart still aches? Lord, you are so merciful. How undeserving of this love and comfort, I am. You have given me a supernatural trust, my hope is firmly rooted in You, Lord, in the eternal.
